By Roberto saav

I download the app create a username and password. Got in the app and the 2 options are claim your profile (I dont have one) or log out....
Hope they were more clear

Great, but please fix bug 3/5

By BeefStew92

Needs Work 3/5

By therealleggacy

As an artist, I thought this was going to be the jam session. And for the most part, it is. There needs to be some bug fixes. You can’t really do much as far as profile customization through the app, but, that was expected. I gave it a three out of five stars because there is definitely room for improvement. I will update my rating if anything changes. 🤘🏼

HUGE design flaw 3/5

By Princeaubreyy

Everything analytically is awesome when you Release a fresh wrk for the first 7 days. You can see your monthly listeners which updates each day, and your live stream count which is awesome. What’s stupid is that the live stream count goes away after day 6. So it becomes horribly off count and laggy and you never know what your accurate stats are in real time anymore. It’s gonna be like 3-4 days behind which is TRASH. Such an idiot development

Help 3/5

By Proofy baby

So I wanna check the streams my whole album has and was able to see it yesterday and now only shows the streams per song and not the album in total!!

Stupid. 1/5

By Zyngasuxkks

No link allowed to your own website
Any artist who is not on spotify chart gets Inferior presentation
Lousy genre classification
Cant even communicate with all these listeners who stream your music endlessly but you only get $0.03 from them a month
Spotify hates musicians and thinks they're just commodities

Can’t login thru Facebook 2/5

By brandondickinson

I can’t login to the app thru Facebook. When I put in my account info, it keeps showing the same login page, basically telling me to login again. It is really annoying and I haven’t had access to my account because of this. Please fix this so I could use the app properly.

uhhh?? 1/5

By sophiemcohen

I don’t like it 1/5

By trap lïfë

So my mixtapes are so food right but it help me with almost nothing

Trash 1/5

By Annakolee

I had this app before I used Apple Music and it was less difficult. I’m trying to log in and it says I need to verify/claim my account. It won’t let me use it until I do so and I don’t understand what I’m being asked.

Can’t Claim Profile 2/5

By jwedd459

I’ve tried for ages to claim my profile but for some unforeseen reason I couldn’t figure it out. When I asked for help, they’re directions were very confusing and unclear.

Works 5/5

By VoltageMelon

Nice app. Btw, if you like edm check me out, my name is ASTRA all caps ;D

Great app 5/5

By Trapstar'Kev

This app is essential for any artist major or indie as it is customer tailored to you as an artist. Insights into who’s playing your music as long as where coupled with little extras like gender and age range of listeners makes this a great tool for all artist it’s helped me a lot I’ve been able to refocus my target market and I’m seeing great results. 5 Stars!

Needs A Certifiably Verified Reply. 5/5

By Montana Gutierrez

If I were to make an artist’s profile/account would they be paid? It wasn’t clear in a, “plain text” viewing .

This app is a blessing 5/5

By Reyjoven

If you’re music is actually good, get this app. Once you get that blue check mark you’re music will speak for it’s self. Thanks guys can’t wait to tell my story of success & mention the app.

Updated metrics are pretty fast now 5/5

By chadwirc

Recently Spotify’s metrics have been updating regularly before noon EST, which is displayed in their “Stats” section. I like that I can update my bio and picture pretty easily and keep track of all the Spotify playlists I’m currently listed in. Overall a very clean app that gives an accurate picture with what’s going on with my music.

Purposeful 3/5

By clydecabbage

Shorten the amount of playlist listeners needed to see them. 10 is fine. I’m in 160+ playlists and can only see 7 because of the 25 listeners thing. Allow us to add Twitter and Instagram from our phones. SoundCloud links too?

Awesome 5/5

By $PUBG$

I love this app is is great you get to look at the artist and stuff and listen to your music and the best part is that you get to here a playlist of new music every week but the one thing I would like to see is if you could make a Spotify app for the Apple Watch and that would make my day please please make a Apple Watch app 😃

Someone call the app cops 2/5

By bananadogscrazy18

Oh man. Nothing works. :/ needs a lot of help.

Profile Claiming Glitch 1/5

By Masaniai

As another reviewer posted, it is not allowing me to claim my profile. When I try to link my social media, Twitter works fine, Instagram will not work, keeps giving me the error message saying “something went wrong”, and I have to start ALL over. Please fix this. I can’t use the app at all if I’m unable to claim my profile.

Please help 3/5

By tytallerthanyou

The play count won’t update at all. If it doesn’t update then my distributor can’t pay me. I’m frustrated

Wow 5/5

Wow I’m surprised this app actually worked now all my listeners are at 200000,00004 fans like 😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳❤️❤️

Ughhhh 2/5

By Announymous Writer

I couldn’t even set up an account. I don’t have Facebook and don’t intend on getting it. However, this is the only way to sign up. Please fix this!!!

Why? 1/5

By Longhornpizza

So we are allowed to write a biography but it will not show up on any part of the application.... 👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼

Touch Preview 1/5

By Djqock

Add the touch preview feature back into the normal Spotify app, how stupid are you guys to think we want that removed?

Spotify is good—but not... 4/5

By RottenTomatoesReviewer

I love Spotify. I love the ability to stream playlists and your music along with artist’s playlists. Something I don’t like about it, however, is that you can’t select a single song from your playlist—you have to just stream through your playlist. Something else I don’t care for is it is so hard to get an artist account. You can’t post without having to purchase a plan through sites such as Tunecore, which also kind of stinks, but overall a pretty decent app.

Problem 3/5

By ChesGaming

I tried editing my claim to my artist Chayse but it wasn’t working can you guys please add a editor to your claim to artists?

?! 2/5

By king._.wyatt

I think that EVERYONE should be able to be an artist on the Spotify Artist app. There are artists that might not be out there yet. Spotify Artist app would be an opportunity for them to share their music.

Missing one CRUCIAL COMPONENT 2/5

By Pastel52

This app is a must-have if your music is on Spotify however ever since my band has posted our first EP we have had three different artists with the same name have their music posted under OUR artist account. Each time this happens I have to email Spotify and wait to hear back for up to a week and even then it can take up to two weeks for the music to be removed. HOW IS THERE NO OPTION FOR REPORTING A RECORD AS NOT YOURS IF THIS HAPPENS SO FREQUENTLY. This issue has caused a heap of confusion amongst our audience and we have lost fans who believe that we have transitioned from emo to bluegrass and it's absolutely ridiculous. At the very least we should be able to "hide" a record until the issue is resolved because as of now our follower numbers are going down.

PLEASE FIX 4/5

By elgoatman

Everything was working fine but yesterday the live stats option disappeared and now the listeners and streams won’t update at all

It’s almost been a month 1/5

By reviewthismug

I submitted to get access to the Spotify artist app since I recently put my single on Spotify, and I want to be able to track the data, however that was almost a month ago and I have not gotten any type of update or notification or anything. I tried sending a private email, but there’s no way to get ahold of anyone, so I had no other choice but to just leave a review. The research I did on the “Help” section of the app is it can take a few days...it’s been almost a full month. PLEASE verify and give me access!

It’s so good I give 1 *

New to Spotify 1/5

By Perry Jacksen

I have been in music for 10 years but I just released my first record on Spotify / iTunes. Seems like my music is being put under other artists that share my name. Was hoping to claim my music and start my own artist page separate from these other people. I have no control either on desktop or mobile, so I expect this app to fix my issue. It did not. Very Limited ability to do anything for your brand on Spotify. Not worth downloading in my opinion.

Young Queso 5/5

By Grapemansoda

Super helpful, especially as a new artist. It gives you live stats for the first couple days, fun to check it occasionally and see how your doing. After that you get them daily, I would love a way to interact/thank my followers as my fan base grows. Other then that this app does exactly what I need. Check out my music if your into rap/trap.
Young Queso got sauce like a dip.

Not working 1/5

By T Clipse

Doesn’t load when i try to verify my artist account

I'm having trouble with the app 3/5

By JūNBoo

I can't seem to claim my artist profile. I have to keep staring over and then it tries to have me link my twitter account and email. The end result is either one of two notifications, "something went wrong" or "sorry we couldn't find that page." I even tried using an alternate email. It's just not letting me claim my artist profile. I'm trying to get my blue check mark!

ALMOST PERFECT. NOT!!! 3/5

By MIXMASTERTRIX

It’s OK it allowed me to write my bio it does that good at least LOL but it doesn’t do much more I mean you can post your playlists so people can see what you’ve been listening to you can post your favorite top song or album or favorite playlist and then you can write your bio. Basically that’s about it. But it does that good LOL you have to install this app if you want to write your bio and your playlists and your top pick (your absolute favorite song or album) there’s no other way to do this so you have to download this app, at least to do that and if you want you can erase it after that.

How long 5/5

By @mber-ber

How long does it take for Spotify to let you know when you can access your page?

its not working 1/5

By Hunndo

ITS NOT WORKING

Not very useful 2/5

By Tizeta Guitar

While I’m happy that I can see my stats here, the real thing I’d like to be able to do (and I’m sure many more artists would) is to be actually able to interact with current fans and help get to new ones by way of creating playlists as the artist and not just embed a playlist to your page (when you share it, shows the creator’s personal account and not yours) it would be great to also follow other bands as the artists page and to get notifications when someone follows me.
So far I have found little use for the app. Pretty disappointing..

Thank you 5/5

By PhilLarson.net

Thank you for the ability to filter stats by time frame update. Changed this review from a 3-Star to a 5-Star!
